Both guys look spent a bit at the end of that round.

Rua is showing a good chin in this so far. Several of those shots would have been knockouts.

Was surprised Hendo didn't finish him in that onslaught. Shogun bounced back. Good first round.

Wow, Le's nose is completely smashed. Bad Stoppage but I think it was inevitable.

That's the Faber I remember from his prime in the WEC. That's how he always finished fights.

Wow Faber looked amazing tonight.

Yes he did. Hoping he takes it to Cruz in the rematch.

People don't like ground fights with no real action in them.

You have to download the plugin. Once you do, it works.

Dude wearing a speedo to the octagon deserves to go down like that. WTF?

LOL

MacDonald is a beast.

Anyone else have their feed go down?

Judges are idiots. It's been pretty embarrassing lately.

Damn, Bader is on a downward slope...

You're just screwing with me now aren't you? =p

You think Silva, Overeem, Kharitonov, or Barnett is better than Velasquez or JDS?

I don't. But I also think it's inevitable that we'll find out for sure.

Boring for an Aldo fight so far.

Jones... Evans... awkward

Good fight. Shaub pulled that one out of his ass.

Anyone watching online? If so, where?

I think atdhe.tv has replaced .net. At last for now.

Looks like the two main sites for watching the fights online have been seized...

Anyone have a good link to watch the fight online tonight?

I think it's obvious now that GSP is the #1 P4P fighter in the world. Just a few months back it was a serious toss-up between him, Fedor, Anderson & BJ but in the last six months, BJ's lost, Fedor's lost, and Anderson has been raped.

I'd say that GSP is #1 P4P and maybe even Aldo is #2. But the plates are definitely shifting.

Aldo is pretty dominant over his weight class right now, possibly even more so than GSP. Basically making everyone else in that division look like punks. Hoping he moves up to 155 at some point. I don't see anyone in the WEC right now giving him a challenge. He's already dominated his main threats.

oddly enough, i like Chael Sonnen more now than at any other point of his career

i almost feel bad for the man

Same here. He was very annoying leading up to this fight. But he won a lot of people over with effort during this fight. Even the crowd started chanting his name instead of Silva's during the fight.

Reminded me of Rocky when he had to go fight the Russian in Russia.

lol

Did you guys see Roger Huerta knock out that dude who hit a girl in front of a club in Austin?

There is showboating and there is running away from a fight...

But i'm gone now, thought I killed off enough time before heading out, but you guys have fun now.

WTF are you talking about?

I think you should just avoid this thread.

Quit trolling.

Due to the allowing of "hugging" what was so impressive about it???

Having control on the ground isn't hugging. You show a lot of ignorance and disrespect to the wrestling aspect of MMA every time you say this. Wrestling is a skill. Sonnen used his wrestling ability to control Silva and do damage from a dominant position. He was throwing a lot of punches from that position.

If you can't respect that then you have no business watching the sport.

At this point you seem like you're trolling.
